The Perfect Pear has moved to a new location where both my blog and design site are now in one location! :) This blog has been so good to me, I've spent so many hours designing it, adding posts, diys, and I'm going to miss it, but I'm so excited about my new site and I'd love for you to come check it out!

To everyone, who has ever commented, emailed or supported my blog, I LOVE YOU!

I had the most amazing time in Bermuda! It's such an inviting and warm little island that I was so happy to spend two weeks there! :) I did a lot of sight seeing and visiting old friends and old places I've been, it was such a memorable trip! This is one of the outfits I wore for one of the days I was here, although I quickly learned by the end of the day that it was wayyyy too hot for a long skirt!

Outfit Details: Skirt=Thrifted Shirt=Urban Behaviour Hat= Ardene's

Anyways, I'll share more pictures later! :) Hope you've all had a fabulous time while I was away! What have you guys been up to?

Well hello! I'm back! :) I was in Bermuda for a few weeks and now I'm home and ready to get back to blogging! I'll be sharing pictures later, but for now I wanted to share this DIY with you guys! If you've been a reader of the blog for a while, you'll know that I love my jewelry, like the knuckle rings or leather wrapped rings, arm candy has been one of my favorite accessories! This has to be my all time favorite creation, I'm absolutely smitten with this gorgeous turquoise leather that I got from Endless Leather, they have such a great selection!! Anyways! :)

You'll Need: Flat leather, magnetic closure, leather studs (make sure they're for leather, I later found out that mine weren't), pliers, leather hole punch, sturdy glue like welbond, a hammer and a pen!

Step One: Mark all the spots where you want your studs to go!

Step Two: Use your leather punch to punch the holes!

Step Three: Put your leather studs in each hole!

Step Four: Put a good amount of glue on each end of the leather and put them into the clasps and let dry fully!
